This study will be an observational study in which patients who have been prescribed CerefolinNAC® are invited to participate in surveys regarding their experiences with CerefolinNAC®. CerefolinNAC® is a medical food indicated for the distinct nutritional requirements of individuals under treatment for early memory loss with particular emphasis for those individuals diagnosed with or at risk for neurovascular oxidative stress and/or hyperhomocysteinemia; mild to moderate cognitive impairment with or without vitamin B12 deficiency, vascular dementia or Alzheimer's disease. The purpose of this study is to increase the understanding of the role of CerefolinNAC® in managing proper neuronal function in the brain, provide patients with personalized education and support, and contribute to the overall understanding of the needs and concerns of patients being treated for early memory loss.

Surveys used to conduct this study will be administered via telephone by InfoMedics, Inc., a company with an established system for developing such patient-physician feedback programs. Participating physicians will ask their patients to participate in the program after CerefolinNAC® has been prescribed and provide them with a brochure containing an introduction to the program and instructions on how to enroll. Patients self-enroll, take a brief survey before starting their CerefolinNAC® prescription, and then two brief follow-up surveys at 6 weeks and 12 weeks. As patients complete surveys within the study, their physician will receive individualized feedback reports outlining their patient's treatment experience and progress. Patients will also receive a copy of their own reports, to help encourage them to continue taking CerefolinNAC® as directed. Patients will also receive educational materials about managing their early memory loss.

Subjects diagnosed with Early Memory Loss who have been prescribed CerefolinNAC® daily.

Other: CerefolinNAC®

CerefolinNAC® is an orally-administered medical food, and each caplet contains 2 mg Methylcobalamin, 600 mg N-acetylcysteine, and 6 mg of L-methylfolate Calcium (as Metafolin®), which is the primary biologically active and immediately bioavailable form of folate. Dosage will be 1 caplet QD.
